"Slumdog Millionaire" beauty Freida Pinto apparently is not the only actress considered for the future Bond girl role as the name of Golden Globe-recipient Jennifer Aniston now falls into the possible casting list of "Bond 23". According to Daily Express, the 40-year-old actress has been eyed to be the next Bond girl after she expressed her hope of starring in the film about the superspy agent.
"We're always looking for the next Bond girl. She has to be beautiful but she also needs to have brains. It helps if she's athletic and able to keep up with the intense stunt work a Bond movie demands," a source from Bond's production company EON explained as reported by the publication. "Jennifer has all these qualities. It's great to hear she'd love to do a movie because we have used established actresses before such as Teri Hatcher and Denise Richards. It's great she's a fan."
"After her comments it's likely she'll be called in to meet [producers] Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson when we start on the next one," the source furthermore insisted. Aniston's remark pointed out by the source was her saying to Elle magazine earlier, "I'd love to do an action movie. James Bond. Glamour. Daniel Craig. Loads of fun." It should be noted though that neither Aniston nor EON has offered any confirmation or denial in relation to this Bond girl speculation.
Since the last Bond movie, "Quantum of Solace", hit theaters, speculations on the next installment of the action series have made their rounds. The latest rumors placed "Slumdog Millionaire" director Danny Boyle and actress Freida Pinto as potential director and Bond girl respectively. However, the Boyle report has been quickly denied by the helmer himself.

The best Bond girl I've seen lately is the chick who plays the Israeli agent on NCIS
it will not work with Jennifer Aniston she cant even play a role in an action movie its not her thing i seen all the james bonds over and over i say you can do better then that.
Anniston? you cannot be serious - she is sooo not a big screen actress - she's not even a good TV actress. Besides she's far too busy trying to find Mr Anniston to be in a Bond.The Bond films may have gone down hill since Goldeneye but that's no reason to cast some over-the-hill tv celeb who's more famous for her failed romances than her acting ability. She's not pretty, she's not sexy, she doesn't have much in the way of personality either. Jeeze, even Joey would make a better bond girl than Rachael. No No NOOOO!
Pinto for Bond girl??NOOOO Aniston???NOOOO; do you have to cast only stars beacause you are so afraid that movie can be a crap so at leat you have to support its release with famous names???Craig is enough to support that movie, if the script is good… and Bond Girls…??? well, I’m ready;D; still waiting on the phone;D
Yes! I would love to see JA in a bond movie. Maybe as Money Penny, a woman with a mature sensuality--an intellectual and sophisticated match for JB. Maybe Anniston's character could help Bond get over that silly Vesper. That story-line was horrible.
The last installment of the James Bond series I did not like at all. I paid to see a very great James Bond movie which it was not at all. I am very much disappointed at EON Productions making this Picture. The Story was stupid. In the future I would like to see the very best James Bond Adventure with a excellent story, screenplay like the way it was in the beginning like Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, and Thunderball. These were the best examples of what the Moviegoer want to see in a James Bond Film. The later ones were stupid and not at all good. C. Logen
Jennifer Aniston? Dang, how about casting a woman with some beauty and depth. Just because she wants the role doesn't mean she can handle it. Hell, I'd like to be an astronaut.
Jen is always type cast. She would not fit the role of a bond girl. Yes she is beautiful, but she always plays the same roles.
To "As" regarding the grandma comment, I can only wish I look half as good when I'm a grandma! Age truly is but a number. Put Jennifer up against any 25 year old and she's just as beautiful, and fit. (probably more)
To "As" regarding the grandma comment, I can only wish I look half as good when I'm a grandma! Age truly is but a number. Put Jennifer up agains
Do NOT let Anniston be the next Bond girl. Get someone fresh!
Bring Jen in as a hard ass company girl. That'll give her a new dimension. Best to you girl, kick some a##
Ms. Aniston is not sexy. She is not beautiful. However - the bond movies are not as good as they once were -
YOU have got to be kidding- She is NO BOND GIRL!! --WHAT ARE THEY THINKING? oh they are not!
So. Who would you iceholes prefer 2c?
The guy playing 007 now will NEVER be anything to me except the Nazi bully who killed the chicken in "The Power Of One". He sure as hell isn't Ian Fleming's image of James Bond.
To L with nu idjits that don't recognize or appreciate Jennifer Anniston's beauty and intellect. When a clown is convincing as a klutz does that make him a fool? U R the dumbs ones!
To Chance Logen: You hit it right on the money, the last bond movie sucked, I hated the bond girl, she was not pretty at all. I love Daniel Craig, he's hot but he was not hot in this movie. Jen Aniston? are you kidding me? most bond girls are beautiful models/actress,Jen's not.Megan Fox is my pick.
Jennifer? She never seems to get out of her role as Rachel, she has that same grin all the time, I would like to see a rather exotic more mysterious actress like Paz Vega or yes Freida Pinto I guess it would depend where the film is going to be filmed at too
i don't think jen will ever be able to escape her role as rachel on friends. although she is gorgeous, personally i don't think she has what it takes to portray a bond girl
I hope the next Bond movie gets back to the movie roots of Bond - In the latest one I couldn't read the writing on the screen it didnt show up well against the background and I thought the story was bad. Way too much action at the start rather than letting the actors get into the roles...
That is a most fantastic news: Yes, I'd love to see JENNIFER ANISTON as the next Bond girl! Her type of beauty will be a fresh look for any Bond masterpiece! Through her "Derailed" movie, I saw she has that dramatic talent. Plus she is fit, a great figure, which will be a great weapon for action. As evidenced by the success of her movies, especially "The Break Up" and "Marley & Me" and the big sales of magazines that bear her photo on the cover and her huge fan-following, she has all the attributes that will contribute greatly to the huge success of a Bond movie. I can't wait to see the Bond movie/s with JENNIFER ANISTON in the lead role together with Daniel Craig. What a match, too: Both have gorgeous blue eyes!
Ohh I really hope she gets the part! I would like to see her act with Daniel Craig...he is so hot...I would even love to see them hook up....to bad he is in a relationship. :(
girl?? rather grandma
Yea! Selecting someone as intelligent, and beautiful as Jennifer for the next Bond Girl is a smart move. She proved her depth in The Good Girl and in Derailed..I think she'd be an awesome Bond Girl..I'd like to see her portraying a sexy, zaney, deadly assasin...she'd be rockin in that role....
Didn't the article say the bond girl would need brains and beauty?
she's too ugly.
I wish Jennifer to get that role.God bless her.
uhh
YAWN
